The Magistr is a REAL BAD virus !

1) If you are using WinME or WinXP, disable System Restore
http://vil.nai.com/vil/SystemHelpDocs/DisableSysRestore.htm
2) Reboot your PC into Safe Mode
3) Using your AV software, perform a Full Scan of your platform and clean/delete any
infectors found
4) Restart your PC and perform a "final" Full Scan of your platform
5) If you are using WinME or WinXP, re-enable System Restore, reboot the PC
6) If you are using WinME or WinXP, create a new Restore point
7) Please report back your results
Need to know if AVG "can" run in Safe Mode.
